Accessing & Changing Configuration Parameter in Flash

It is possible to use RS232 commands to examine and change the controller’s parameters stored in Flash. These commands will appear cryptic and difficult to use for manual param- eter setting. It is recommended to use the Graphical configuration utility described in “Using the Roborun Configuration Utility” on page 181. Note that many parameters will not take effect until the controller is reset or a special command is sent. The complete list of parameters accessible using these commands is listed in “Automatic Switching from RS232 to RC Mode” on page 169. Reading and writing parameters is done using the fol- lowing commands:

Read parameter

Syntax:	^mm
Reply:	DD
Where	mm= parameter number
	DD= current parameter value
Example:
^00	Read value parameter 0
01	Controller replies, value is 01
Modify parameter
Syntax:	^mm nn
Reply:	+ if command was executed successfully
	- if error
Where	mm= parameter number
	nn= new parameter value
Examples:
^02 03	Store 03 into parameter 2

Notes:

All parameters and values are expressed with 2 hexadecimal digits

No changes will be made and an error will be reported (“-” character) when attempting to read or write a parameter that does not exist or when attempting to store a parameter with an invalid value.
